Clark and Poynter announce a run at the White House!

It was not surprising that James David Clark and Tim Poynter chose to make their intentions public Via Facebook. An announcement that circulated on social media like a dog on a chain being chased by a rabid goat.
Since Clark left the agriculture industry in early July of 2017, he has found a welcome outlet in Twitter, which has allowed him to express his opinions in terse missives while avoiding the news conferences that are likely to become a mainstay now that he is a presidential candidate.

He will also look for ways to demonstrate that, after more than five decades in the music industry, he understands the ways of modern campaigns and can appeal to younger voters with his best box reggae-bluegrass form of music. Mr Clark's 56 year-old campaign manager, Chris Lynch, known for exploiting 60s style surf tunes, has already dispatched field organizers to Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina in search of former Joan Jett and Billy Idol roadies.

For all the months of quiet and careful planning, however, his campaign’s rollout did not come off as smoothly as envisioned. Rather than gliding into the spotlight as an above-the-fray former Radio announcer, Mr Clark enters the 2020 race in the midst of lingering questions about his exclusive use of excessive amounts of purchased leather, feathers, silk and 5" glitter coated pumps, in a size 11 D..

Mr. Poynter, the man Clark has chosen as his sidekick, assured donors that those controversies would pass and that the momentum would shift as soon as Mr. Clark was officially a candidate, according to a person involved in those discussions, a person requesting (Gail Deweese) to remain anonymous.

Mr. Clark will enter the race with a strong base of support: 2 percent of Democrats said they would consider voting for him, according to a CBS News poll conducted in June. That support dwarfs that of his potential rivals for the nomination, including former Arkansas banker Fred West, singing and recording sensation Kevin Upshaw of Arkansas and Miracle center stage man Jason Strode, an Insurance tycoon from Springdale who might run as an Independent.

But the roller coaster of a presidential campaign can erode even the most seemingly certain advantages. Just over eight years ago, Mr. Clark began that campaign with an email to supporters declaring that he was "in it for the beer nuts and meatball appitizers.” That announcement began a downward trajectory in which he went from being considered the inevitable nominee to finishing in third place in the Iowa caucuses, behind Front man Rosie O'Donald and O. J. Simpson, who is expected to be released on probation in September.

He went on to pick up primary victories in crucial battleground cities like Urbanette and Metaltin, but by then Ms O'Donald had an edge in the fight for delegates.

In a 2010 gig at Jose's Bar and Grill , Mr Clark sought to energize the musicians who had supported his candidacy.

“Although we weren’t able to get all the chickens in the coop, we at least got enough for a good Sunday pan of livers and gizzards," he said. “And the light is shining through like a flashlight in a cave, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier this time.”

This time, Mr. Clark's aides have signaled that he will take nothing for granted and present himself as a more professional bass player, unencumbered by the trappings of power and celebrity as is possible for a universally recognized former candy striped at "Out Lady Of Hope" nursing facility in Canifax, Ohio, morning radio announcer of the ever popular "Ozark Mountain Morning" radio show, circus and revival.

There may be little room for error, though, for Mr. Clark, who will begin his campaign under the glare of intense media scrutiny and criticism from a broad field of potential opponents, concerning his choice of running mate. Former dog groomer, former donut maker, former radio station manager, former auto service center manager, former restaurant manager, etc, etc, etc....
The twosome plan a hard fight ahead and if there is no fight, they'll just get a group of brother musicians together and for a band. The name of the band, you might ask? Nine other than "Prez JD and the Little People!!"
Clark says "there's no fun in a fight, unless you know there's catfish waitin' at the band bus!
